For an accurate assessment of value the coin needs to be seen and graded. Most all early U.S. coins have different varieties for the same year issued. The 1798 Draped Bust Large Cent has 4 of them. The value of the coin runs from $30.00 to $100.00 (depending on which variety) in the lowest collectible grade of AG-3 and well over $1,000.00 starting at the VF range of grades. If you can, take it to more than one coin dealer for an idea of actual value. Values given are a market average and only for coins in collectible condition, coins that are bent, corroded, scratched, used as jewelry or have been cleaned have far less value if any to a collector or dealer.
